Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149: Chapter 107: Generous Reward! Perfect Timing!

Cold snow fluttered down, within the courtyard.

Gu Xiaojiang rarely appeared and was drinking with Gu Sheng. Nowadays, he had also begun using Blood Nourishing Powder for medicinal baths, embarking on the path of flesh and blood transformation.

This step wasn’t difficult for him; the hard part was breaking through the limits to generate Qi Blood Power later on.

However, he was confident that advancing to the Blood Refining Realm before the age of eighteen wouldn’t be a challenge, and it might not even take that long. As a result, Gu Xiaojiang’s mood had grown more relaxed. His cultivation progressed step by step, unlike before when he felt suffocated by pressure.

The only thing giving him some trouble was the progress of Iron Stone Fist.

The breakthrough from Great Achievement Realm to Perfect seemed indefinitely distant. After all, at this stage, he had to find his own way forward. Gu Jingang could no longer provide any guidance; Gu Sheng might offer occasional hints, but ultimately, it would depend on him.

"You should feel satisfied. At your age, having achieved this level of strength, advancing to the Bone Refining Realm in the future is undoubtedly certain. If you’re still not happy, wouldn’t others feel like giving up on living?" _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

Seeing Gu Xiaojiang’s dissatisfaction, Gu Sheng teased him with a laugh.

Young people were always proud and ambitious, hoping to grow stronger faster.

Gu Xiaojiang responded with a wry smile:

"My realm has progressed, but I lack practical combat experience. At best, I spar with the martial artists in the manor. I’ve hardly engaged in life-or-death battles. To be honest, I want to become a mercenary, but my father and the others forbid it..."

This was understandable.

Gu’s Manor had invested a lot of effort in Gu Xiaojiang. If he were to die so recklessly, wouldn’t that be a complete loss?

Even if improving his combat experience was necessary, they would never let him recklessly become a mercenary.

"Once you advance to the Blood Refining Realm, plenty of opportunities will arise."

Gu Sheng simply offered a smile.

"Why do you think the same way as them? My father and the others also said that I’d have to advance to the Blood Refining Realm before becoming a mercenary. Sigh, that will take quite a while."

A trace of yearning flickered in Gu Xiaojiang’s eyes.

Recently, several prominent figures had emerged among the mercenaries.

"The mercenaries boast some formidable warriors. Whether it’s ’Autumn Water Sword’ Yan Heng, the newly-rising ’Axe Butcher,’ ’Quick Blade’ Zhou Song, or the ’Three Tempest Brothers,’ each one is a powerhouse among powerhouses. Truly enviable."

"Especially ’Axe Butcher.’ I’ve heard Uncle Jingang mention him multiple times, saying this individual might have innate Divine Power—possibly even stronger than his own!"

Upon hearing his name spoken with such reverence by Gu Xiaojiang, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but feel a peculiar sense of amusement.

Gu Xiaojiang had no idea that the ’Axe Butcher’ sat right across from him, drinking together.

Gu Sheng chuckled lightly. He had heard of the others mentioned as well, and had even interacted with ’Quick Blade’ Zhou Song, who had once invited him to join a mercenary elite circle. Gu Sheng had ignored the offer, likely sowing some resentment in Zhou Song’s heart.

Seeing Gu Xiaojiang’s eagerness, Gu Sheng smiled consolingly:
